Locarno Open Doors 2026 will run from Aug. 5-10, showcasing diverse African films. Projects like "Chapa 100" and "A Vineyard for a Lobster" highlight the continent's creative talent. Suzsi Bankuti said, "the cohort of Open Doors 2026 is made up of projects and filmmakers that don't compromise with authenticity." It looks promising.
